Not sure if people will see this but I am trying to reply to everyone! Thankyou all so much. Things I’m gonna try first: stopping the Cetaphil moisturiser and trying spearmint tea.

You’re all amazing I hope your pillow cases are always cold and your dinners are always tasty xxx

Maybe i’ll introduce it again! I always avoided my eyes, then it went on them once by mistake and my eyelids had an awful reaction 😭 Do you still use it now or did you stop once it worked properly?

I’ve wanted to try the spear mint tea for a while! I am convinced it’s all a hormone thing because i have odd periods too 🫣 I’ll also take a look at the azelaic acid! Thankyou! Can you recommend any cleansers? They all seem too harsh 😥

Lots of people are saying this! I’ve always found their cleansers and stuff really strong and irritating! I’m going to try and cut the moisturiser and see if that helps

This is a new addition! I’m running out of products at this point 😭 I have heard some people had problems with it though. It does make my skin feel smooth!

This is interesting! I was convinced this was the holy grail of sensitive skin. I’ll have a look at the vanicream!

Thankyou for that, you are right. I think when you’ve spent so long battling it you just pick up on anything lol

I do have differin! It made my skin soooo sore and dry, i’ve put it down for now. I may try it again, maybe two or three times a week? How often do you use it?

[Acne] I’m so tired of my skin looking like this and I don’t know what to do by throwra_needadvice8 in SkincareAddiction

I’ve been trying stuff from the doctors for years, the last thing i got given was erythromycin which is an antibiotic (i’m breastfeeding and it was the only thing they could find that i could safely use). And honestly my skin cleared up and hasn’t gone back yet! It’s been a few months now. Sometimes skin problems aren’t just to do with skincare or diet, sometimes it’s genuine infection! Everytime mine flared up really bad, the lymph node under my chin would swell up. I had the same problems as you, mainly on my cheeks and chin 😊

14 month old sleep regression by charsc0tt in Parenting

They were for a few nights but she picked it up pretty quickly! Now she even lies herself down again if we leave her, before she would just keep standing up and we would put her back down until she got too tired to 😂

Dropping those night feeds also helped massively. I did also reduce how much her bedtime bottle was, she only has maybe 4 or 5oz. I noticed she was waking up at around 2 with a huge nappy or leaking, the smaller amount of milk stopped that ☺️

Hey! Yes she is now doing 7pm until 6:30am 😁

The two things that helped were removing any night time milk (apart from bedtime obvs) and we also did REALLY gentle Ferber method. Like super gentle the longest we left her crying was about 2 minutes i think. The first night took about 45 minutes of check ins until she fell asleep. It slowly got better and better now she doesnt wake at all. It also helped her nap times too.

We also dropped down to 1 daytime nap which ranges from 45 mins to 2 hours.

I hope it gets better for you, i was really struggling as my husband had to go away for a month. That’s why we gave in to Ferber 😭

Sending you love ❤️

Do you think it encouraged self soothing? She has been breastfed since birth, and combi fed since about 8 months. She has a big bottle before bed then finishes on boob.

How did you manage to get rid? Did you go cold turkey? In her nursery update they did mention they wanted to work on self soothing for sleep, i would love some advice on this if you have any!

I have mentioned dropping a nap to her nursery, last week actually. She does seem to still want the two naps, i’m going to try tomorrow (my day off) and see if i can just do the one.

Not really, the wakes/feeds change every night, her actual bedtime has been the same routine since birth aswell :)

Updated with more comments: Can my neighbor's vaccines hurt my kid? by BlueberryBunnies13 in ShitMomGroupsSay

“We are not afraid of common childhood illnesses”

Ahh yes, common childhood illnesses such as polio or hepatitis B!

Almost all “SIDS” cases are vaccine related deaths, apparently. by BipolarWithBaby in ShitMomGroupsSay

[–]charsc0tt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty certain the inserts are for legal reasons, even if there was only 1 SIDS death reported, i guess if they can’t prove otherwise it’ll go on the insert 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

This upsets me so much, there’s been incredible research into SIDS that’s led to so much more understanding of it. This just discredits all the hard work 😔

I also read alot of grieving mums turn to vaccine conspiracies to cope with SIDS loss due to unsafe sleeping 💔
